Colorful honey is a problem!

Topeka, Kansas, where I work, is hemorrhaging jobs like a lot of places.  They're all excited by the M&M's plant and the factory jobs that it is bringing.  But maybe the areas beekeepers shouldn't be:

MULHOUSE, France, Oct 4 (Reuters) - Bees at a cluster of apiaries in northeastern France have been producing honey in mysterious shades of blue and green, alarming their keepers who now believe residue from containers of M&M's candy processed at a nearby biogas plant is the cause.

Since August, beekeepers around the town of Ribeauville in the region of Alsace have seen bees returning to their hives carrying unidentified colourful substances that have turned their honey unnatural shades.

The beekeepers are afraid to sell the honey with the weird colors but I think they should market it! whistling.gif
